Bushman, at least that's advice. Why would you opt to replace without checking or trying to fix, considering the extra cost? That's a serious question, I'm keen to get advice here.
Sorry if I sounded harsh,but a chain at the end of it's life can not be revived,the only option is replacement,the final drive,chain and chainwheels have a finite life.


No worries at all. The reason I was so surprised is that I would put this chain at the start of its life, not the end. As above it has barely done any hours, a large amount of which has been running in time with little load!

So that's why I was a bit taken aback, because to me it is not obvious at all why a new chain would be stiff all round.

Just to clarify to anyone reading, the best thing about this forum is that opinions and advice are backed up with facts and experience. Not everyone has the same level of knowledge, but everyone wants to learn. Let's keep that up, otherwise what's the point? Bushman, thanks for coming around and clarifying what you meant.
